Kitchen Helpers
Quick note:
The kids not only love helping us with food prep in the kitchen . . .they are getting better and better at it as they go.
Recently, we were making a dish requiring organic baby spinach leaves to be added so we divided bunches of washed leaves between Braxton and Emily. They were instructed to pull the big stems off and place the de-stemmed leaves in a pile. We washed and spun them dry before giving them their piles of leaves.
Brandy kept noticing a lot of green in the trash can and quickly discovered Braxton tossing more in. We asked why and he said that Emily kept breaking them and messing up. Well, her work was a bit hyper (the leaves looked like a band of fairies danced all night on some of them) but we deduced the real idea might be more along the lines of him not wanting to deal with helping her so he'd just throw any away not perfect.
After awhile of the stem breaking task, Emily said:
"I need more weeds, Nandy!"
I still laugh when I think of it and JUST thought I'd share that. Smile & wink ~
